Oh lovely Nonny. Thank you for your ask. I've consulted my fellow witches @charlatron and @jacklyn-flynn and can confirm the answer is...

Honestly we don't know. Adulting is, well, adulting. We do have a story mapped out ready to go! It was the coffee shop AU (but smuttier) which all our lovely readers voted for.

It's just with us to knuckle down and writing. Leave it with us, to know there are people looking forward to seeing more of our work means a lot ♥ ♥ ♥

12 Days of Satinalia

Ahhh, I know I’m running behind on these but I’m determined to finish them 😤 I have others written out already, I just need to make some edits. But here you go! Happy holidays! ❤❤❤ (Please note that this is part two to a prompt I did earlier, ‘Under the Mistletoe.’)

Day Four: Satinalia Tree

Josephine Montilyet pinched the bridge of her nose. “The ribbons need to be higher,” she said, looking back up at the two workers who were decorating the large Satinalia tree in the center of the main hall. The golden ribbons that had been wrapped around the tree were lopsided and uneven – this was truly a nightmare.

She sighed, exasperated. “The ribbons should be parallel with the others! I don’t want them to look as though they have been simply thrown on.”

“I take it things are going well, Josie?” Leliana said as she stood beside Josephine.

“Not unless we can make this tree look better in two days when we have the feast,” she sighed.

The spymaster chuckled. “It will be fine, stop worrying so much.”

“I just want everything to be perfect,” Josephine said. “There will be guests arriving from all over Thedas – benefactors who believe in our cause. I will not our reputation to be marred by poorly-placed ribbons.”

Leliana sighed. “Even still, things will go well. You’ll see.”

Satinalia Prompt 5: New Year’s

Last (and longest) work for @the-smut-coven Satinalia prompts-New Year’s.

I was not expecting it to be as long as it was and was surprised at the ending (I didn’t start with the intent to write the ending I ended up with-possibly my own fault for not actually planning these things out and just having vague ideas).

Thanks to @bevosgirl @lyfurn and foxinboots for betaing.

See AO3 for CWs

Full/NSFW version: https://archiveofourown.org/works/28264776

Edited/SFW version: https://archiveofourown.org/works/28265052

After this I plan to leave FenHawke for a bit and move on to an Alistair ship longfic with an original female character (I might be willing to give some spoilers about her if people ask nicely ^^)

12 Days of Satinalia

Day Ten: Poetry

Cassandra sat by the fireplace in the armory, flipping through the pages of one of her favorite book serials. Swords and Shields, by Varric Tethras, she thought, agitated. How dare he write such beautiful things. The serial a guilty pleasure of hers – she loved romantic stories best of all.

She flipped the page and a slip of parchment fell out.

  My lady brings such grace to sword and shield

Eyes of molten onyx, a hardened gaze

I am disarmed, I thought my will was steeled

Yet I am a fool in a lover’s haze

She blushed. “What is this?” she murmured to herself, stuffing the parchment back into the book. How could that have ended up there? Was the poem… about her?

Thank you again to @tightassets​ for letting me borrow your babes AND for the hysterical art!

Prompt: Ugly Holiday Sweaters Pairing(s): Cullen x Trevelyan, Hawke x Lavellan Word Count: 1097 [AO3 link]

“C-come in,” Olivia called out, trying her hardest not to laugh, “door’s open.”

“Cullen, the food smells divine.” Keaton’s deep voice called out from the hallway. “I can’t wait to sink my teeth into that juicy bird of - hey!” he expectedly trailed off as he emerged into the living room, confused to find himself the only person wearing a Maker-awful Satinalia sweater.

Unable to remain composed for a second longer Olivia and Lilitu finally lost it, both of them doubled over with laughter as Keaton moodily crossed his arms. What little of his cheeks were visible beneath his thick beard were painted crimson at having fallen for their cruel joke. “Ugly sweaters” they’d said, “It’ll be fun". Only what they failed to mention was that it would be fun for them because he’d be the only person wearing one.

Satinalia WIP

Six Sentence Sunday entry for the last prompt I'm working on for @the-smut-coven Satinalia prompts. My FenHawke again and because my brain is just fundimentally broken this one is, again super angsty (although there will be an NSFW version of the fic available when it's done)

[Fenris] had reached over to Cassia Hawke’s side of the bed, so that she could be the first thing he saw that year; first thing he saw, felt, smelled, touched, and tasted; but Cass wasn’t there. The sheets were cold and empty. He was starting to understand why Cass hated waking up to an empty bed so much, even beyond the scar he had left her with that night they didn’t talk about. Cass was missing from their bed too often these days. Not just their bed, the couch, the rug in front of the fireplace, one time the dining room table that he suspected she had only suggested in the hopes they would break the thing so she could claim not to have one; wherever they had fallen asleep, as safe and content as she was in his arms, something was keeping her from staying there.

Not something; THAT thing.

I’m back for our next @twelve-days-of-da-dwarves​ prompt: Mistletoe! I’m also going to submit this for the glorious witches of @the-smut-coven​ for their Mistletoe prompt for 12 Days of Satinalia! Have some Colemance <3 

Title: Baby It’s Cold Outside Chapter: 1/1 Word Count: 2,101 Rating: E Pairing: Female Cadash/Cole Additional Tags:

Summary: Bea Cadash really meant to decorate for Satinalia, but when she goes to hang up the mistletoe she gets a little distracted explaining the meaning behind it to Cole. Cole is happy to be a distraction. 

Read on AO3

The slow roll of the music is smooth as the expensive whiskey Maria’s new boyfriend buys her. Jazz notes slink through the air, Bea can’t help humming along even as she rummages in the old boxes full of decorations.

“I really can’t stay…” she sings just as the breathy, sultry female voice breathes the melody into existence. “I gotta go away…”

Like magic, the bundle of tissue paper she’s searching for appears in her vision clasped in a pale, long-fingered hand. She beams up into Cole’s smiling face and plucks it from his grip, unwrapping it slowly.

Her hips swing back and forth, lightly bumping Cole’s while the music plays. “I ought to say no, no, no sir…”

She tosses a cheerful wink at Cole. “At least I’m gonna say that I tried.”

His brow wrinkles. “But she doesn’t want to go home. She wants him to kiss her.”

His honesty startles a bright laugh from her. She can’t help but rise on tiptoes to press a chaste kiss on his pointed chin. “Nothing gets past you.”

“It’s a game. An old one she had to play because she couldn’t say yes.”

Bea��s such a sap for him that all she can do is give into the surge of pride and affection squeezing her heart. Because there’s very few people that make her feel this way.

And nobody as often as Cole.

She tugs her eyes away from his wide-eyed, blue gaze to rip the tissue paper from the bright green silk foliage and shiny plastic red berries. “If everyone was as good at nuance as you, sweetheart, the world would be a better place.”

“Shades of grey and fuzzy, beautiful like fog clinging to streetlights and your eyes when dawn hit them,” he murmurs with the same fondness she feels. His fingers reach out to twist chocolate curls around them with all the shyness of their early days.

She holds up the mistletoe in her hand and grins. “This is a game too, you know.”

And Bea does love her games. She lifts the mistletoe up over her head and tips her chin up. “You know what this means?”

“No?”

He looks both adorably confused and intriguingly curious. Bea giggles and tosses her curls over her shoulder. “The rules are, you’ve got to kiss what’s under the mistletoe.”

Special thanks to @tightassets​ for letting me borrow Keaton and Lilitu who we’ll also be seeing for the ugly sweater prompt.

Prompt: The Feast Pairing: Cullen x Trevelyan Rating: Explicit Word Count: 1029 [AO3 link]

Having finished readying herself for the evening’s planned festivities, Olivia sauntered into the kitchen and hopped up onto the counter where Cullen was busy preparing his vegetables. 

She wore a pleated miniskirt in Blackwatch tartan - her favourite fabric, he’d noticed - and a skin-tight black shirt with full-length sleeves and an extremely deep V neckline. 

“Where did you learn to cook, exactly?” she asked, popping a small piece of raw carrot into her mouth as he tried to ignore the call to her partially exposed breasts.

“It really isn’t as difficult as you make it look,“ he japed, having bore witness to her dreadful cookery skills on more than one occasion. 

“Hey!” She gently punched his arm in mock outrage. “What I lack in culinary abilities I more than make up for in other areas.”

12 Days of Satinalia

Day Three: Animals Getting Festive

“Catch that dog!” a scout shouted as they chased a bounding mabari through the lower courtyard.

The mabari flew past soldiers and other workers alike, his mouth open as he carefully ran up the snow-covered steps that led to the main hall. The scout who was chasing him lunged forward, slipping on the steps and knocking back the others as well. He slid through the main doors, catching the eye of Varric Tethras, who raised his eyebrow at the odd scene. 

The mabari turned and raced to the other side of the hall. He barked at the door, and the dwarven stonemason named Gatsi smiled as he opened the door to the gardens. The mabari barked gratefully as he raced past the alcoves and chantry sisters until he reached the garden. He looked around, sniffing the air. Suddenly catching a scent, barked as he raced toward an unsuspecting Alistair. He jumped, knocking Alistair to the ground.

“Ooph,” Alistair winced. He looked up at the mabari. “Wait a second… Barkspawn?”
